         You mean are there several connections sharing the same 
bandwidth?  Not normally.  Rarely are there two simultaneous connections 
going.  But when we do connect, we usually hit it hard for brief periods of 
time of 2-5 minutes on most things.  Transfer of things across the net via 
FTP will have it tied up for about 1-2 hours from time to time, but that's 
about it.  That's why it baffles me why when I ask for full bandwidth and I 
am the only one using it I only get 50% of max speed.
